## Neovim config
### Plugin manager: VimPlug
**Linux VimPlug:**
```
sh -c 'curl -fLo "${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}"/nvim/site/autoload/plug.vim --create-dirs \
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim'
```
**Windows VimPlug :**
```
md ~\AppData\Local\nvim\autoload
$uri = 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim'
(New-Object Net.WebClient).DownloadFile(
$uri,
$ExecutionContext.SessionState.Path.GetUnresolvedProviderPathFromPSPath(
"~\AppData\Local\nvim\autoload\plug.vim"
)
)
```
Config location `AppData\Local\nvim\init.vim`
If no folder or file, you need to create it.
To get this config, replace `init.vim` with `win_init.vim` and rename the file
### Coc
I use coc for autocompletion, file explorer, eslint / prettier and whole bunch of things.
**⚠️ You need node to install coc**
Coc plugins are installed automatically. To install more use `CocInstall` or add package to `g:coc_global_extensions` in `plugins-config.vim`.

## FAQ
### What's the vision for this config?
The goal is to have a lightweight, lean yet effective desktop to work and have fun 😊.
### Why use this config?
It's home. And it's also lightweight enough for heavy workflow on 8go of ram (docker + node + chrome and hundreds of tabs).
### Is such a simple desktop really usable?
Yes I used this config daily for 5 months while working on frontend dev at Okarito.
### Why base it mainly on Arch?
I use Arch btw.
### Where is polybar and rofi?
I used it for a while but in the end I don't like it that much. I rather have i3 default status bar and dmenu. I don't really care about heavy ricing I just want the best software for my use.
## Other settings
### Gnome
When I'm not using i3, I'm using Gnome because Gnome is the best non tilingwm for me.
The following settings are settings I'm always enabling when I install Gnome:
#### Alt right click resize
```
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences resize-with-right-button true
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences mouse-button-modifier ''
```
#### Fix alt-tab on gnome
```
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-applications "[]"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-applications-backward "[]"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-windows "['Tab', 'Tab']"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-windows-backward "['Tab', 'Tab']"
```
